sdctlc 0 #1 May 7, 2004 I was watching MSNBC and they were interviewing "Scott Zackey"??? or something like that about his being tossed off an airplane since he was wearing a T-shirt that offended the Pilot. Has anybody heard about this. I searched the common news sites and came up with nothing. I would like some more info. They showed the T-shirt briefly and I missed it so I want to get some more info on this........ Seems kind bad if you can get tossed for a t-shirt. That may be a step too far in the name of security and pilot discretion.. As a side the interviewer asked what his political affiliation was and I was suprised when he said republican. Also he mentioned Southwest but I am not sure if that was the airline it happened on. Thanks, Scott C."He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

Gawain 0 #2 May 7, 2004 I've not heard about it, but I think Pilot's Discretion, is Pilot's Discretion --- for whatever reason (I could be wrong). Southwest tends to back-up its employees.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Skyrad 0 #3 May 7, 2004 Don't know if it was the same incident but after 9/11 a Rastafarian was taken off an aircraft in the states at gunpoint because of his T shirt. It later truned out that the picture on the front wasn't of Osama Bin Laden but of Hilas Silasi!When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

wallygator 0 #5 May 7, 2004 so i guess this means anyone wearing a shirt with a man with a beard gets booted off the flight. Who re-imbursed the man for his missed flight, business loss if that is the reason he was flying. Not to mention the slander of his character. I think the pilot should have been kicked off for his bullshit. how can you mistake a picture of Emperor Halle Selaisse for bin laden. that is just bullshit and more proof the shytstem is one sided.
